    I eat super food. Don't believe in superfoods, though. That's just tabloid/blog fodder. :)

    Food is food.
    Thinking and speaking in terms of "superfoods" encourages ignorance of proper diet and nutrition.

    It is on par with discussing which OTC supplements are best for weight loss.
    Here is a hint: They are all a waste of money

    Get enough protein for building muscle and sufficient carbs to fuel your workouts.

    I don't believe in so called "super foods" to me its all about the quantity of meals, calories, fat, carbs, protein, sugar, fibre etc etc but I do have to say I enjoy some of the switches I have made like cottage cheese instead of cheddar cheese and popcorn instead of crisps (potato chips) also I am enjoying foods I never tried before my lifestyle change and thats couscous, chia seeds, linseeds/flax seeds, kale and overnight oats, instead of reaching for that bag of potato chips that I used to do due to laziness I spend a little time and blend myself a smoothie or a juice :)

    While I don't believe in any food being a "super food", I've found that Halo Top ice cream completely satisfies my craving for dessert and fits well within my calorie goals. It works for me!

    hmm. If I had to pick something as a "superfood":
    Beans. high fiber=filling, +protein as a bonus, +cheap
    distant 2nd:
    Lettuce. Can munch on giant piles of this stuff for nearly 0 calories. (great for boredom &/or volume eaters).
